Millets are small-seeded grasses that are hardy and grow well in dry zones as rain-fed crops, under marginal conditions of soil fertility and moisture. Millets are one of the oldest foods known to humans and possibly the first cereal grain to be used for domestic purposes. Millets are also unique due to their short growing season. Why eat millets? Millets are particularly high in minerals like iron, magnesium, phosphorous and potassium. Environmental: Unlike rice and wheat that require many inputs in terms of soil fertility and water, millets grow well in dry regions as rainfed crops. Small farmers: There are many co-operatives of small farmers that are working on providing livelihoods to farmers while at the same time focusing on ecological preservation. What kinds of millets are available? How do I cook them? Where can I buy millets? Earth 360 Ventures, Kadiri, Andhra Pradesh.
